That's nothing.At least a few KUBs have their handrails almost ripped off......KUB's will be looking older then CRB's if this goes on.

Both also not comfortable, suspension is veri jialat for some merc and kub

I say mk4 dm3500 the best=)

The KUB jerks too much.

Jerks when:

Brakes are applied.

Brakes are released from rest.

Locking-up.

Transition from 5th to 4th gear.

I don't understand the cause behind the last . It is caused by the bus surging forward, and then backward when the gear engages, and then forward as the bus axle speed matches the engine speed again.

Is it because the gearbox is still "stiff"? Only 5th to 4th is affected.

actually, i hope BN feeders will not get the first 500 KUBs at least

i wan BNDEP get KUB Euro V. All Euro 4 very boring seh.

I think BNDEP will finish up the first 500 KUBs.

Due to the fact that BNDEP got to wipe off all the N113CRBs first, before the SLBP/AMDEP/BRBP clears off their MB0405s too.

And also those BNDEP services which are not fated to get any K230UBs, they will get Volvo MK3/MK4 replacements at most when the Scania N113CRBs go off.

meaning that BNDEP will get more Euro 5 KUBS first? And may I know that Euro 5 KUB got demo? Coz i think that it's a new series of the emmision standerd.

My first time going into the seletar was on the 5th of this month, SBS597X, i could feel that the bus is bumping, and my seat was almost broken, coz already got shaking feel lard, then the BC was a malay woman, driving to siao-ly.Then it was so good feel.

Service 103M's route will have to pass by a lot of sharp turns and narrow roads along Seletar West Camp road. Think it will be risky to put new buses there too. And in fact HGDEP also did not even put any perm Volvo MK4s on service 103, just full fleet MK3s (in the past it was full fleet MK2s). But there were MK4 cameos before.

Service 105 can always get Euro Vs from SLBP instead

SBS8033D SG

Wrong. Got even perm before.

SBS7484P SG

SBS8033D SG

I remember seeing a photo of SBS1786K on 94 too in someone's photo gallery.very cool man.those good old days.i greatly miss them.

Service 94 was once under HGDEP together with other Eunos bus services, it was Volvo fleets at that time. Until Eunos routes came under BRBP in exchange for Serangoon routes in 2004, NAC Scanias with occasional MB0405s were deployed.

The plan was scrap due to certain reasons. Passengers are used to seeing a red plate in front instead of seeing the EDS.

I rather they standardise the current "Terminating" system by using 1 type of T plate instead of various pattern , and to have a proper way of putting the plates on the windscreen.

Perhaps follow the SMRT's style by displaying an "E - Terminating at xxx Int". Again it will confuse those commuters thinking that the "E" means fast foward Townlinks .

Another problem is our MK 3s can't display E.

nenepokey SG

103M lah. dont give 103M KUB ah. If not within one day suspension wreck liao.

and i'm sure u dun wanna take a KUB into that suck cock place right?

Hmmm. BRBP/AMDEP collected their own batch already. Judging from it, BNDEP will continue finish up the Euro 4 series and take some Euro 5s. Then HGDEP must take liao.

SBS7322B SG

maybe have maybe dun have. but if there is i hope it go HGDEP perm 105.

This kind of post is a bit redundant and some people may not like it. It is too biased.
